FORTUNES FOR EVERY ONE
Millionaire Mackay's Advice to
Young Men and Women.


Once in a while Il man with woc-be-
gone lace and Il general aspect Of seedi-
ness will say: "'rhcre is no chance for
Il poor man in this country" There new
or was greater mistake than this. Take
IL glance at the millionaires of New York
and you will find that nineteen out of
twenty Of them started without Il dollar.
They made their money as rule by
keeping their eyes open and taking al
vantage of the opportunities which
were occasionally afforded them.
1t is not the men who make all the
money, either. There are young women
who can give ordinary men points on
making safe and good investments, and
who are living in luxury now through
having invested their small saving in n
good thing that returned them profits a
hundred-fUld.
Maybe it was in Il good patent, per
haps it WAS in Il small store, or more like
ly they made their wealth by sensible
investment in some good stock, which
rapidly appreciated in value. That is
about the easiest and safest way for man
or woman TO get rich, and there are hun
dreds of both sexes in New York who
know that fact because they have tried it.
When John \. Mackcy, the famous Bo-
nanza millionaire, was at the Hoffman

That the advice of Mr.. Mackcy is being
pretty generally acted on by men and
women who are smart enough to take

Silver Mining Company, whose genera

ment that is away ahead of saving bank,
and building associations is rarely offer
ed to the public.
The shares are worcestershire and thu

Already the shares are flvorite in

pecially with people who have small
sums of money anf who hope for large
returns from small purchase.
The stock has advanced 100 per cent
from the original price, and many believe
